H expressed his happiness for being selected acknowledging Friday Omosola, the Editor-in-chief of ECHO MEDIA, who informed and guided him through the application stage.
Speaking about the benefits of the program, he reiterated that the MCN certificate is a 'door-opener' for individuals, noting that the fellowship allows fellows to network with worldwide leaders and have access to international community platforms where leadership and sustainable development skills are acquired.
"The training is both online and offline but mostly offline. Fellows from each school have to meet in person on campus for the Fellowship Program. There is a Town hall meeting on the 17th of August, where the alumni are expected to address the new selectees. After that, a Campus Directors (CD) will be selected among them from each school. This CD's will serve as the leader of the group and an intermediary between the Fellowship and the Selected fellows," he narrated.
Kolade, however, encouraged campus journalists and students to apply for Fellowship programs to enhance their skills and use their pen to contribute more to society.
